<dt><em>Description</em>:</dt>
<dd><p><code>IDATE(VALUES)</code> Fills <var>VALUES</var> with the numerical values at the  
current local time. The day (in the range 1-31), month (in the range 1-12), 
and year appear in elements 1, 2, and 3 of <var>VALUES</var>, respectively. 
The year has four significant digits.

<p>This intrinsic routine is provided for backwards compatibility with 
GNU Fortran 77.  In new code, programmers should consider the use of 
the <a href="DATE_005fAND_005fTIME.html">DATE_AND_TIME</a> intrinsic defined by the Fortran 95
standard.
